Product Details

The Bilstein B8 shocks are built for a 1983-1997 Ford Ranger (P-Series) that has been lifted or leveled, valved for the taller ride height rather than fighting it.

The monotube design is what sets Bilstein apart. A single high-pressure gas chamber keeps the oil from aerating, so the damping stays consistent on a rough road instead of fading as the unit heats up.

Features

  • 46mm monotube design ensures consistent, fade-free performance in all conditions
  • Patented digressive valving instantly reacts to changing surface conditions
  • Vehicle specific tuning
